Episode 346: In this episode, we look into the life and mysterious murder of Annie Mae Pictou Aquash, a prominent Indigenous activist whose story continues to haunt the corridors of justice and activism alike. During the tumultuous 1970s, her journey took her from Shubenacadie, Nova Scotia, to the heart of the American Indian Movement (AIM) in the United States, where she fought for Indigenous rights. The mystery surrounding Annie Mae's death is as compelling as her life. In December 1975, she disappeared and was later found deceased on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Initial reports misleadingly attributed her death to exposure, but a second autopsy revealed she had been executed with a bullet to the back of her head. This revelation raised questions about who could have orchestrated such a brutal act against someone so profoundly committed to her cause. It took almost 30 years before the shocking truth was uncovered and the people responsible for Annie's murder were brought to justice.

On this week's episode of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, we welcome the phenomenal Shelly Denny, co-founder of Medicine Wheel Ride - a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to raising awareness and support for Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women (MMIW) and their families. Shelly lives in Arizona and is an enrolled member of the Leech Lake Band of Ojibwe, which is an Anishinaabe Tribe in Northern Minnesota, also known as Ojibway or Chippewa. She is a Doctor of Oriental Medicine and works full time in Indian Country as an acupuncturist. Shelly grew up in a biker family and has been on a motorcycle since she was in the womb. In 1996, at 19 years old, she bought her first motorcycle and hasn't let go of the throttle since. Shelly has logged over a quarter million miles on a motorcycle with numerous cross-country trips, many of which were solo rides. Shelly's activism started in her teen years and she became an organizer and volunteer in groups like Earth First, Food Not Bombs, Catholic Worker Community, and Indigenous rights groups in various peace and justice issues. After seeing the egotism and anger that can get in the way of good activist work, Shelly took a break from direct action to work on internal healing of trauma and addiction and develop healthy and productive modes of coping with obstacles and difficulties. This groundwork of healing and recovery has added a deeper level of resilience and commitment to service. Shelly believes there is great power in knowing exactly who you are and spiritual commitment that extends beyond mere faith. In this episode, you'll hear: Shelly's inspiring life story; Her experience being raised in a biker family, in the Indigenous community, and being in-and-out of the foster care system; How Shelly goe into volunteerism and activism - and how that was her “rebellion”; About the crisis of Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women and Relatives; How the Medicine Wheel Ride came to be and all about their incredible work to raise awareness and support for MMIW/MMIR; And so much more.

This week we dive into the bizarre disappearance of Ashley Loring Heavyrunner from the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana. Just 20 years old, investigators looked into some questionable relationships she may have had, substance abuse issues, and one particularly odd interaction with her father just before she disappeared. An overworked and under-funded police force leads to some devastating missteps within this case, and several untrustworthy characters make it difficult to know who is really telling the truth.Sources:1) https://uncovered.com/cases/ashley-loring-heavy-runner 2) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Browning,_Montana 3) https://www.fbi.gov/wanted/kidnap/ashley-loring-heavyrunner4) https://www.aetv.com/real-crime/ashley-loring5) https://www.krtv.com/news/crime-and-courts/suspect-arrested-by-fbi-in-great-falls-has-been-identifiedSupport the show

The interview in this episode was originally published in March of 2022.Before she was the starring alongside Jodie Foster in TRUE DETECTIVE, Kali Reis was a champion boxer. As she shares in this interview, she has always been "boxing for a cause" -- in particular, that of Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women. In her feature debut, 'Catch the Fair One' (directed by Josef Kubota Wladyka), she plays a woman whose world is shaken when her sister goes missing. Reis, who is of Wampanoag and Cape Verdean heritage, brings us a character with much different problems, but whose physicality, sense of humor, and deeply felt emotions, have been making Kali feel seen: Rue Bennett from HBO's Euphoria.Then, back in 2024, Jordan has one quick thing to say about the brand new crop of Oscar nominees.***With Jordan Crucchiola and Kali Reis
There is an epidemic across North America that has not received nearly enough media attention and that is the murder and disappearance of indigenous women, girls, and two-spirits.

Today we cover several topics. We start in Nashville where the Tennessee legislature has demonstrated clearly its white supremacy and misogyny. We talk to people in the gallery who came to witness the unjustified and racist expulsion of Justin Jones, Justin Pearson, and Gloria Johnson. We then listen to a presentation by Azmat Kahn investigative reporter on the deadly impact of US killer drones and air strikes. We finish up with a song highlighting the disaster that is missing and murdered indigenous women called Red Dress from our friend Joseph Defilippo and the RJ Phillips band.
What follows is a single conversation with, Pomo, Wailaki, and Maidu indigenous educator and public health expert Rose Hammock on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (#MMIW). That phrase refers to both an epidemic and a movement that is at the forefront of the modern indigenous civil rights movement. For context we also discuss the colonial history and colonial present of Sonoma County California.It is a difficult conversation, filled with the pain of a people but also the beauty and resilience of the native people of this land. And we have an instinct that it may be necessary to take some of that pain on to become a true friend and ally to them. Listen but stop at any point you need to.Toward the end of the discussion Rose gives several offerings of how to play a part in the modern native civil rights movement including observing and marching on The Federal Day of MMIW Awareness, May 5th.I want to thank Rose for trusting me, a white, Anglo-Saxon man to mediate in this, her presentation on MMIW to the wider Sonoma County Community. Trust is a choice and it is a courageous one.WEBSITES :Sovereign Bodies Institute : https://www.sovereign-bodies.org/California Indian Museum and Cultural Center: https://cimcc.org/Redbud Resource Group : https://www.redbudresourcegroup.org/who-we-areRose Hammock IG : https://www.instagram.com/rosie_hammock/Local and Global Map of Native Land : https://native-land.ca/

In the United States, approximately 4200 indigenous people go missing and are murdered. All unsolved. Although it is thought these numbers are way higher due to underreporting. We will get to that over the next couple of months. But even at the official numbers, these are alarming rates. On some reservations, women experience violence and are victims of homicide at ten times the rate of women in other communities. This is obviously a complex issue with prejudice and jurisdictional issues and these all play major roles. 5 Janice Hannigan4 Daisy Tallman3 Delphine Nikal2 Alyssa McLemore1 Cynthia MartinFacebook /mysteriouslylistedTwitter @mysteriouslistMusic is by Myuu Hosted on Acast.

This week, to honor Native American Heritage Month, we are turning to the difficult and heavy - but important - topic of MMIW, Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2 Spirits. These cases are super hard to talk about, but we want to continue to shine a light on these way-too-prevalent atrocities. Featuring a beautiful two-spirit person's resilience in the face of bullying, a woman who disappeared at the height of COVID, and a controversial murder at the heart of the American Indian Movement.

Happy November, Twisted Listeners! In honor of this month's biggest holiday, we're covering a very important, serious, and horrible topic: missing and murdered Indigenous women. These stories are myriad - there are entire podcasts dedicated to them, and with good reason! Indigenous women are 10 times more likely to be murdered than any other group, and murder is the 3rd leading cause of death for Indigenous women. Over 50% of Indigenous women suffer sexual abuse in their lifetimes, and this is just what's reported. So these stories are very important, as is taking action.

About one million people make up the population of Montana, of that about 6.7% are Indigenous people. But despite the small population Indigenous people make up about 26% of the missing person cases in the state; the majority of those numbers being overwhelmingly female. And it's not unique to Montana. Other states with Indigenous populations report high instances as well. According to a Department of Justice report on missing and murdered Indigenous women in Montana, a 2018 investigation by the Associated Press stated “…nobody knows precisely how cases of missing and murdered Native American women happen nationwide because many cases go unreported, others aren't well-documented and no government database specifically tracks them.”Why is this? And why don't we hear more about these cases?The team at 5 Things spoke to Great Falls Tribune reporter Nora Mabie about this crisis. She talks about the dynamics involved in various law enforcement agencies and jurisdiction as well as something called 'missing white woman syndrome.'For more on this story, click here.For more about Cheryl Horn, a USA TODAY woman of the year and what she is doing to help missing and murdered Indigenous women, click here.

There are countless numbers of unsolved missing person cases and unsolved murders in the United States. Those numbers are amplified however, when applied to the indigenous communities in the nation. Yet, there are no resources and many roadblocks in the way of law enforcement when they are investigating these issues. Now, a new government initiative looks to address those issues. Will it be all talk like usual, or will they actually provide the resources these communities so desperately need and that these families whose loved ones are missing deserve.

On March 31st, Washington Governor Jay Inslee signed into a law a bill that created the first in the nation statewide alert system for missing Indigenous people. State representative Debra Lekanoff sponsored the bill. Lekanoff is a Democrat, who represents the 40th legislative district. She joins the Chino Y Chicano for a powerful conversation about the importance of the legislation for native women. The alert system will be similar to the state's “silver alert” for missing vulnerable adults. It will help identify and locate missing Indigenous people, especially women, that go missing at disproportionately high rates and face higher rates of violence and murder compared to other ethnic groups in the U.S.

In pop culture, the relocation of 'marriageable' women to places like Seattle was played as a humorous, feel-good story. It wasn't. In the midst of the Civil War, a man named Asa Mercer headed East to seek out women to move to the small frontier town of Seattle. It's a familiar story, one that served as inspiration for a television show called Here Come the Brides and the musical Seven Brides for Seven Brothers. Those shows played the scheme for good-hearted laughs, but the reality was no laughing matter. Settling the frontier was a largely male enterprise, and the desire for women for labor, partnership and sex led to practices that highlighted the patriarchy, racism and exploitation that shaped early American life. Knute Berger touched on this history in a recent episode of his Mossback's Northwest video series, but there is much more to discuss. For this episode of the Mossback Podcast, Berger and co-host Sara Bernard discuss the conditions that gave rise to the so-called Mercer Girls, the racist underpinnings of early laws that helped lead to such trafficking of white women and how the mistreatment of Native and First Nations women and girls by white men on the frontier was a precursor to the Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women of today. Before listening, we suggest you watch the original Mossback's Northwest episode about the Mercer Girls here. --- Credits Hosts: Sara Bernard, Knute Berger Producer: Seth Halleran Executive producer: Mark Baumgarten
